It was built in the early Tang Dynasty. Originally known as Minzhong Temple, it was changed to Chongfu Temple in Ming Dynasty, and renamed Fayuan Temple after being rebuilt in the 11th year of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty (1735).

Tanzhe Temple was built in the Jin Dynasty (265-420), then known as Kafka Temple, in the Tang Dynasty as Longlongquan Temple, and after reconstruction in the Jin Dynasty as Damanjuji Temple. It was built in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and was rebuilt in Kangxi of Qing Dynasty. It was named Yun Xiu Temple. The names of temples have changed in different dynasties, but the name of Tanzhe Temple has been circulating for a long time. Tanzhe Temple is named after Longtan behind the temple and Zheshu on the mountain.

There is a saying in Beijing that "Tanzhe Temple comes first, then Youzhou". It is conceivable that this temple is ancient. The architectural layout of Tanzhe Temple is divided into three grids: the middle road is the Buddha Hall-the Mountain Gate, the Heavenly King Hall, the Ursa Major Hall and the Piluge Pavilion. There are many antiques and beautiful legends in this group of buildings. Such as the statue of Princess Miao Yan, the daughter of Kublai Khan in Yuan Shizu.

It is said that Princess Miao Yan once had her hair cut and lived here. It takes a long time to wear out the bricks every morning and evening. There is also an ancient ginkgo tree on the east side of Ursa major, commonly known as "Imperial Tree", and the symmetrical one on the west side is called "Wang Pei Tree". The pine trees in the middle of the road are particularly thick and towering, and there are also rare flowers and trees such as Borneo trees and Magnolia trees. The back hall overlooks the whole temple landscape. There is also a stone fish, the treasure of Tanzhe Temple, in the gallery of the Dragon King Hall in the temple. It is a big stone pot fish with a length of about 1.5 meters and a weight of 75 kilograms. This kind of fish looks like copper from a distance, and it can make clear music when it is hit. The ancients said it was a treasure of the Dragon Palace in the South China Sea. In fact, it is a meteorite with high copper content. The original stone fish has been destroyed, and now the stone fish is a replica.

East Road is the Palace, where the emperors of the Qing Dynasty traveled and rested. The most famous road is Liu Beiting, which people often say. The pavilion is hung with a horizontal plaque inscribed by Emperor Qianlong himself. It seems that there is a dragon head in the south and a tiger head in the north. The spring water flows into the ditch and flows out through the tortuous sink. The width of the sink in Liubei Pavilion is about 10 cm. If the glass is put into the sink, it will drift with the water, and visitors can sit in different positions and take the glass to suck wine. There are four such Liubei pavilions in Beijing, among which the flowing sound of Tanzhe Temple and Zhongnanhai is the most famous.

On the west road, there are some Buddhist temples with round and square buildings, which are solemn and beautiful. The highest place is Guanyin Hall, with two bells tied at its corners, and the breeze makes a crisp sound.

There are 500 wooden gold-plated arhats, 7 Buddha statues and a statue of Jigong, which is more than one foot high. There are two theories about the five hundred arhats: one is the five hundred male monks who attended the first or fourth gathering; The second is the 500 disciples who often listen to Buddhism with Sakyamuni. The five hundred arhats in the Arhat Hall of Biyun Temple are arranged according to the list and order drawn up by Emperor Qianlong himself. In front of each arhat, there is a painted golden signboard with the name of arhat written on it. Emperor Qianlong named himself Lohan, and his name was broken Jaken.
